The ahk-rare's intro from herbm

AHK-Rare - collection of rare or very useful single functions

This is a collection of functions I found at Autohotkey-Forum or inside Autohotkey Scripts. Sometimes you will find one of it an official Autohotkey-Library. Approximately 90-95% of the functions can not be found in any of the 1000 libraries that I have also put together here at Github.

Some of the collected function seems to be multiple in this collection, because they sometimes use very different methods. This is a crucial difference. You wan’t find “THE ONLY ONE” good function here. Take what is the better right now! From that I build up a script individual library.

Last modification date: 30.09.2018, Changes are below! At the end: complete list of all functions. The functions are sorted by topic as shown in the picture. Remark: I didn’t tested all functions and sorting is very different.

In the AHK forum I read that "Codefolding does not work". After trying it with Sublime Text Editor I noticed that Sublime does not natively support codefolding via the syntax ;{ , ;}. Maybe that's the problem. The collection was created with Scite4Autohotkey.

I’ve found a lot function this time. I checked the found functions that these can not actually be found in any library, so that these can really be called "Rare". I added some more descriptions, examples, links and moved some functions to the right category.

***** changing the signs to default code folding signs. I changed ;{ to { ; and ;} to }. I hope it will work in most cases and most code editors.

Organized layout, some functions moved to the right topic, delete duplicate functions, adding more info and examples*

Functionlist to Markdown.ahk - my script to handle the Markdown table output for this page. It's not a dynamic script! The output depends from the following syntax:

SystemCursor(OnOff=1) {  							;-- hiding mouse cursor

-> it search for '(' followed by a ';--' , then it recognized it as a function, it uses the comment as short description

-> it ignores all functions without ';--' or functions that marked with ';{ sub' at the beginning and ';}' at the end:

;{ sub
;If [var] in [ .. ]
InVar(Haystack, Needle, Delimiter := ",", OmitChars := "") {
	Loop, Parse, % Needle, %Delimiter%, %OmitChars%
		if (A_LoopField = Haystack)
